Ok. I'll ask them if they overclocked it. If they did, should they under clock it?

LAN is present on my computer, I use a DSL connection though, and it says that my LAN connection is broken.

The don't have to connect to the Internet to fix your problem. All they have to do is turn your computer on and start LimeWire. The reason they can not work with LimeWire is because it shows there is a problem and they need to fix it. If you remove LimeWire then there is no problem so they don't have to fix it. They are using LimeWire as an excuse so the do not have to fix what they messed up. If it were me I would tell them that I believe the last number was 1.5 million computers are currently running LimeWire and they are not getting the BSoD.

I entirely agree with Grandpa, your geeks cannot fix the problem because they have no idea what it is. Back in the dim and distant past, when I used to work on PCs and faced with a similar problem, I would go through a trial and error process to find out what the problem was and then come up with a solution, not fob the user off with techno-babble.

Anyway, I have also had the dreaded BSOD, in the recent past, when using LW and that tended to be an incompatibility between the video driver and LW. I cured the problem by downloading and installing the latest drivers for my video card.

In order to do this you have to find out what video card or onboard video set-up your PC is using then go to the video manufacturer’s web site and download the latest drivers for your PC.

Hope this helps.

I've scrammbled across something that I'm curious about. I went to Control Panel, and there I see "Wireless Network Setup Wizard." I'm not sure what it is, but do you guys recommend me initiating it for it to work with limewire?

From memory it's for setting up UPnP on your wireless device. For more on UPnP see the UPnP section here about 1/4 down the page Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)

That is for setting up a wireless network on your computer. Or setting up a secure connection. I think your problem is something other than that since you have a wireless connection already. Your problem is most likely as UKbobboy suggested a driver or something along those lines.A bad install of windows will also do the same thing.I do believe I would be more assertive with the geek squad if it were me and make them fix it. If you keep messing around with it they will be able to say it was something you did. Just ask they why millions of people can run LimeWire but after they fixed your computer you can't.
